Stay home Halloween Horror on THRILL CHANNEL + GIVEAWAY

If you have no plans to go out this Halloween season, why not stay home and scream your lungs out while watching the horror shows on Thrill Channel: Starhub Cable TV Channel 618; SingTel mioTV Channel 415.  


5 episode straight of the Halloween Series. WOW, I guess I will turned into a zombie if I watch them all at one go. >_<


The nice people from Thrill Channel is so kind to send me some premiums to lighten the atmosphere. Before I go into details what I received and how it would probably help me, let me share the November TV schedule.





Since October is coming to an end, here's some films that would keep your November month busy and thrilling. Premiering on 1st of November is Rosemary's Baby. I believe this is something worth catching. From the synopsis, I'm already very curious of what they have done to the baby. 


Item #1: Skull Stress Ball

Skull Stress Ball with popping eyeballs that are filled with maggots. Useful when I feel the need to squeeze somebody's hand while watching the horror show but when there's nobody around. Relieve stress and tension. Posted a short instavideo of how it works, click here to watch and a friend commented if the eyes will explode. Hehe, no, it didn't. When you press too hard, the maggots just get stuck outside as per the middle image of the photo collage. 


Item #2: Ghost figurine Salt and Pepper holder. 

The black and white ghosts are super CUTE! 


"Hovering" when I let them out of their "thrill FEAR IS FUN Coffins"


Back to the coffins and rest in peace!


Item #3: Blood Bag Water Bottle

Drinking from this water bottle is like drinking blood.

GIVEAWAY TIME

I'm giving away Item #2 and Item #3. Simply comment on which item you want to win and also one of the show title that you think is scariest. Giveaway closed before Halloween ends. Winners will be notified.

Thank you!

Thank you for sending me a box full of carefully curated tips ranging from preparation to storage and others. With this on hand, I'm more than ready to take on my kitchen and play by my rules! 



Some of the tips that I found quite useful and would love to share

PREPARATION

1. To get rid of the burning sensation chillies leave on your skin, soak your hands in milk or yoghurt.
2. To peel potatoes easily, boil them first then quickly put them into ice-cold water for 10 seconds. The skins will slide off effortlessly. 

COOKING

1. Add 2-3 drops of lemon juice to rice while cooking it to keep the grains from sticking to each other.
2. Added too much salt? Just throw in a teaspoon of sugar to alleviate the taste.
3. Placing a wooden spoon across a boiling pot prevents it from boiling over.

CLEANING

1. Wipe off coffee stains on cups with a mixture of equal parts vinegar and salt.
2. For extra greasy pots and pans, add white vinegar to your dishwashing liquid. 

STORAGE

1. To prevent apple slices from turning brown, squeeze lime or lemon juice on them.
2. Place a bay leaf in dried goods like rice, pasta and flour to keep insects out. 
3. Test the freshness of an egg by placing it in a bowl of water. if it sinks to the bottom, it's good. If it floats to the top, throw it away. 


Read on my next post as I will reveal the recipe for this Owl Bread (Food Art). Thanks for reading.
